[PATCH 1/5] brcmfmac: analyze descriptors of current component only

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So far we were looking for address descriptors without a check for
crossing current component border. In case of dealing with unsupported
descriptor or descriptor missing at all the code would incorrectly get
data from another component.

Consider this binary-described component from BCM4366 EROM:
4bf83b01	TAG==CI		CID==0x83b
20080201	TAG==CI		PORTS==0+1	WRAPPERS==0+1
18400035	TAG==ADDR	SZ_SZD		TYPE_SLAVE
00050000
18107085	TAG==ADDR	SZ_4K		TYPE_SWRAP

Driver was assigning invalid base address to this core:
brcmfmac:  [6 ] core 0x83b:32 base 0x18109000 wrap 0x18107000
which came from totally different component defined in EROM:
43b36701	TAG==CI		CID==0x367
00000201	TAG==CI		PORTS==0+1	WRAPPERS==0+0
18109005	TAG==ADDR	SZ_4K		TYPE_SLAVE

This change will also allow us to support components without wrapper
address in the future.
